To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

I’ll start using self checkout when the cost of my groceries goes down due to the elimination of labor costs.

Fact is, we are paying MORE now than ever, even with the self checkout registers.

What time savings? Between self-checkout and employees shopping for the pick up service at my local store (thereby clogging the aisles with these gigantic carts full of food that they’re picking out for people), which is why I would never use it because I’m a discerning shopper when it comes to packaging, especially cans with dents and other such things that the shopping-employees really don’t give a hoot about... they just want to fill the order so they can pick up the next order to take out to the parking lot to give to somebody who did their shopping on their app. It’s, it’s crazy.

Theft from items INTENTIONALLY not scanned by the customer is a BIG problem with the scanning machines. I try and deal with a human cashier almost all the time.
